Chapter 927 Mutation
"The bones are like jade, this is the legendary immortal bone!"
Hu Gong looked at the skeleton for a long time before murmuring.
"Oh? Have you heard of Mr. Hu?" Professor Xiang's eyes lit up.
"I heard it from my grandfather, and my grandfather also heard it from my grandfather's grandfather..." Hu Gong said with a bitter smile: "The E family has a background in archaeology for generations. It is said that our ancestor was also a cultivator and met a fairy fate... …Later, a certain generation of ancestors took the silk books left by their ancestors and dug a large tomb, and they once unearthed such immortal bones…”
"Then what?"
Sun Yuan asked with a trembling voice.
"Then, our ancestors... met... a real, living immortal!"
Hu Gong's voice was ethereal: "The immortal claimed to be from the Gourd Cave, and was related to the jade bones dug out by my ancestors..."
Gulu!
The metalworker's throat rolled: "Then the immortal accepted your ancestor as his apprentice, and what kind of silk books and elixirs were passed on to him?"
"No!"
Hu Gong smiled bitterly: "Then the immortal was struck to death by lightning! Even the jade bones and the big tomb... were destroyed by the power of heaven. Only my ancestor escaped by chance and hurriedly explained the funeral arrangements. Let's go away... It is said that there is a law in our world that prohibits immortals from appearing in this world, otherwise they will be struck by lightning from the sky!"
"Hey, isn't this just making up a story?" The metal worker felt very bored.
"Well, I just listened to it as a story, but after seeing this jade bone, I started to believe it." Hu Gong said.
"Okay, this may just be that Huang Danzi had some orthopedic disease before he was alive, and then used some chemicals after becoming a corpse, so he behaved like this. We can extract some ingredients and wait for the laboratory test results..."
Professor Xiang ended the conversation and continued to open the coffin.
The coffin was very small, with the jade-bone corpse lying in the middle. Most of the clothes it wore were still intact. The corpse was lying on its back, with its back facing upwards, and it was holding a bamboo slip in its right hand.
I don’t know what kind of material this bamboo slip is made of. It seems to be bamboo, and it seems to be infiltrated with a little bit of metal. There are three ancient hieroglyphs on it.
"The Classic of Mountains and Seas...? It's a wonderful ancient book - "The Classic of Mountains and Seas"!"
Professor Xiang's eyes lit up: "Great! This is a great discovery in the history of archaeology!"
"Is this really the authentic copy of The Classic of Mountains and Seas?"
Hu Gong also widened his eyes.
It is true that "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" is too famous, and most of the surviving versions today were made up by various dynasties after the Yan-Han Dynasty. As a result, there were more than 3,000 different versions, which caused a huge quarrel in the literary world.
And now, the "Book of Mountains and Seas" unearthed from the tombs of the early Yan Han Dynasty is very likely to be the original version. This is the most powerful evidence, enough to put a final word on this controversy!
Sun Yuan also looked at the bamboo slips with a passionate expression, trying to identify the ancient characters one by one.
However, the next moment, there was sudden severe tinnitus in his ears.
Hey!
The harsh sound strongly impacted the eardrums, and seemed to be mixed with endless gibbering.
In front of his eyes were strange scenes and phantoms.
boom!
Finally, Sun Yuan fell straight down...
…
"We're at Xingshan Mountain again..."
On the top of Xingshan Mountain, Zhong Shenxiu stands with his hands behind his back, seeming to be overlooking the scenery.
At this time, the entire Xingshan Mountain began to shake slightly, and countless small animals fled quickly, much like the scene before an earthquake.
"What did you sense? Are you still unwilling? Unfortunately, this is not the resurrection of the soul, and it is not your time anymore!"
He stamped his feet, and the whole mountain immediately fell silent, as if the slight trembling just now was just an illusion.
Zhong Shenxiu's eyes moved slightly, as if he saw everything that happened in the ancient tomb.
Well, it was indeed a monk's tomb. He didn't do much, he just stuffed a volume of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" into it.
At this time, looking at the camp that had begun to become chaotic, he curled his lips and flashed to Tianxing City, in a park, where he sat leisurely on a bench and fed the pigeons at hand.
'...In fact, there is still a legacy of monks in the world, that is, Liu Ji, the ancestor of the Earth Immortal in the Hulu Cave Heaven... He did not want to ascend and became an immortal in the mortal world. In order to protect the monks under his command, he even took away the spiritual treasures... …'
'And in recent years, in order to ensure digestion, the rules of the human world have been strict. Even the monks from the Gourd Cave Heaven came out and killed each one directly. This led to the end of the world of immortal cultivators. No one believed in the theory of immortals and gods, and satisfied digestion.' Prerequisites for "Secret History Fragments..."
'And the next ceremony is the key to how to digest it. According to my previous speculation... This is not to direct the revival of spiritual energy and the practice of the whole people, but to guide a small group of people to recognize the true history... It is best to have Elements such as secrecy and secrecy...'
This directly led to the death of a certain Demonic Corpse Immortal under the Xingshan Mountain, and basically never came out again.
‘So... you can’t enjoy such a good thing as the New Immortal Way, so you should feel the terror brought by the unknown and mystery! ’
Zhong Shenxiu looked towards a certain hospital, his eyes seemed to have...pity.
…
In a daze, Sun Yuan seemed to see huge mountains towering into the clouds, various monsters with human heads and bird bodies, and sad and terrifying shadows in the shadows...
In his ears, all kinds of gibbering and crazy shouts switched back and forth, all the time.
"ah!"
He woke up with a start and found himself lying on a hospital bed, next to his friends Hua Peng and Xia Fanxing.
"you're awake?"
Hua Peng stood up quickly: "I'm going to call the doctor!"
"What's wrong with me?"
Sun Yuan looked at Xia Fanxing and was speechless for a moment.
"I heard that you fainted in the tomb and was sent to the hospital. Come and see you." Xia Fanxing put down the fruit basket: "As long as you're okay, I'll leave first."
"well……"
Sun Yuan did not hold back, but just sighed. He also thought of the scene before he finally lost consciousness: "Am I so weak? I actually fainted in the tomb. This internship performance is dead..."
"Also...what are those hallucinations and the murmurs I heard? Am I not suffering from mental illness?"
Just when he was thinking wildly, the doctor came in, performed a series of examinations on him, and declared that he was healthy and could be discharged immediately.
Sun Yuan thought for a while, and instead of rushing out of the hospital, he asked Hua Peng for his cell phone and called Professor Qi Xiang.
After a short wait, the call was connected: "Professor Xiang, this is Sun Yuan, I'm sorry..."
Sun Yuan apologized quickly and asked, "The doctor said I'm fine. Is it about the internship?"
"Sigh... the situation here isn't quite right either..."
From the other end of the phone came Professor Xiang’s sigh: “We had obviously taken protective measures before taking out the bamboo slips that recorded the Classic of Mountains and Seas, but they were completely destroyed the moment we left the ancient tomb. …”
"How can this be?"
Sun Yuan's eyes widened and he felt even more distressed.
That is a historical document that can shock the world!
